Whether or not Ohioans will say yes to legalized marijuana on Election Day is anybody's guess.

While voters may be confused about the differences between Issue 2 (a proposed constitutional amendment crafted by lawmakers aimed at squashing Issue 3) and Issue 3 (a proposed constitutional amendment which calls for adults to be allowed to consume marijuana legally), they seem very interested in what's at stake.

The interest extends all the way out to Colorado, which is where WLWT News 5 investigative reporter Todd Dykes has been for the past week, examining what that state's legal marijuana industry looks like.

One of the people he talked to was Caroline O'Connell, a 20-year-old student at Colorado University in Boulder.

"I love it. It's awesome. Everyone's, like, super nice," O'Connell said of the CU-Boulder campus, which is nestled along the front range of the Rocky Mountains.

Colorado is a long way from the Hyde Park, Mt. Lookout area in Cincinnati, where O'Connell grew up.

She said in and around Boulder, using marijuana is generally an accepted practice.

"I don't think it's much of an issue," O'Connell said. "It's just an accepting thing that people do."

In Colorado, anyone over 21 years old can consume marijuana legally.

A Summit Country Day graduate, O'Connell said she believes smoking pot makes more sense than drinking alcohol.

"People, like, don't really party as hard here," O'Connell said. "No one is blackout drunk all the time. People are more, like, chill. There aren't as many bad consequences with, like, weed smoking."

But O'Connell's perspective is not shared by all.

"We should not legalize drugs in Ohio," said Ohio Gov. John Kasich. "That would be a disaster."

Those words were spoken by Kasich after a debate featuring Republican presidential candidates, which took place on the campus of CU-Boulder.

As pro-marijuana activists protested outside the debate, Kasich made a point to criticize legalization efforts.

"I mean, there's a sense of morality involved, and our children should be put first," Kasich said. "So that we're not going to, you know, gamble them away by making drugs legal. I mean, I'm begging the people of Cincinnati.You vote against, you vote against legalizing drugs."

The fact O'Connell's views clash with the views of her home state's governor points to the deep divide, which exists between Ohio voters who say give legal pot a chance and those who say doing just that would send the wrong message to young people.
